6S is a method of organizing and managing a workspace or workflow and aims to improve efficiency and quality by eliminating waste, improving workflow and eliminating useless processes/activities. 6S is also a systematic six-step method for optimizing the work area, environment and operating procedures to ensure the best product quality and customer value creation. In this sense, the article presents the thinking, implementation and implementation of the elements of 6S within the wire drawing section to ensure a predictable, organized and safe workplace.
